Writing my own NASL file

[sec_admin]

I am thinking about writing some of NASL files to include more vulnerabilities on my systems, is there a guideline or template I can use for this?

I have checked one of the default NASL files, but I am confused about the following

• What is script name: “script_name” is this referring to something else? " script_name(“Apache HTTP Server ‘mod_cluster’ DoS Vulnerability - Linux”);" for example will this search for something that is stored in the DB maybe or other areas?

• How to define the detection method?

I installed openvas community edition in my virtual box via docker. I want to create custom .nasl scripts and see them in the dashboard. Please share how to do it or any document on the same. Thank you.
